Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Orcq

The drive from Charleroi Airport to Orcq

The route covers 101 km (63 miles) and typically takes 1 h 6 m. Orcq lies in western Hainaut, so the journey runs across the province rather than into Brussels. This is a route that is booked less often than the big city transfers, but it is available on request just like any other. Allow some extra time if you travel during the morning or evening rush hour, or in poor weather, since a longer drive makes small delays more noticeable.

Which vehicle suits your group

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a Private Taxi is the simplest choice: one version takes 1-3 passengers, another takes 1-4 passengers. If you travel with more people or more luggage, Private Minibuses are available with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Choose the seat count that matches your party, and remember to count everyone, children included, when you book.

Orcq and where to stay nearby

Orcq is a quiet village in the Tournai area, close to the French border, and it is part of the municipality of Tournai. It is mostly residential, so travellers usually combine it with a visit to the city centre, where the cathedral and the old town are the main sights. We do not name accommodation in Orcq itself because we cannot confirm any with confidence. In nearby Tournai, two established options are:

• Mercure Tournai, a business and leisure hotel in the city.
• Hôtel Cathédrale, a hotel in the historic centre of Tournai.

Give the driver the full address of your accommodation when you book, so the drop-off point is exact.
